and wanted to see if it fit your view

"The young parents here that drop so much money, that they don’t have, all hit the wall when kid 2 or 3 comes on board. The money becomes unsustainable and one parent is in one town paying for a hotel while the other is somewhere else…….


What do you think happens then?. Miss Susie starts gettin raw dawgged by Steve the rich divorced doctor, while poor Mark is feeling guilty for the blow job he got from the plump single mom."

Particularly the ones who got married early. Got that little bit of wonder about what else is out there, coupled with the opportunity to find out...Makes sense.

I think the parents really into travel ball are somewhat broken in the first place. Maybe it's kind of like the Crossfit people ($1 to Obed)....The other parents have no hobbies...You have no hobbies. They've got a rocky marriage, so do you. Just naturally happens.

Lol, what? All our games for 4 year old's t-ball were at the same YMCA right


Jan 24, 2024, 1:11 PM

down the road from my house. Where do you live?

BFE is my best guess.***

Maybe that will be better, I dunno. Pendleton was pretty poorly organized and overall ###### experience.

We are moving from the Civic Center to Ducworth (hwy 81) this year

Who y'all signed up with? We're open to going to Anderson too

I'm honestly leaning that way, Clemson people are kinda...weird these days.

hitting 4HRs, scoring 5 goals, or scoring 34 points in every game he's gonna need another level to play at.

Then he goes to a travel ball team and svcks.
